Topic	What 6 games defined the 00s decade of gaming?
Zeus 07/21/18 5:32:50 PM #34:	Sarcasthma posted... There's no need to be so grumpy in a nice topic like this. You say that, but he forgot Pokemon, which was one of the biggest titles by far in the 90s. In fact, it's one of the best-selling games of all times and the highest-ranking one that wasn't also a system pack-in. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games BigOlePappy posted... I think I actually have him blocked because of none if his/her posts make sense. Oh no, I was blocked by a guy who shitposts terrible opinions about games and doesn't like those opinions questioned! How will I ever survive?! >_> BigOlePappy posted... First, SMW was the iconic early 90s platformer and solidified a genre that everyone was trying to "cash in" on. Second, FF7 is infinitely more synonymous with 90s JRPGs than Pokemon. I don't think that people at the time even realized Pokemon RBY were JRPGs. A lot of wrong in one post, but okay. And writing Pokemon RB off as just a jrpg is about as stupid of a claim as you make. BigOlePappy posted... "Also, OOT was a better fit for 3D genre game, but SM64 could have worked too." If you're trying to claim it was a 3D platformer, it really wasn't. SM64 helped to usher in 3D platformers and was often used as the measuring stick for them. BigOlePappy posted... The most perplexing aspect is that the original 90s suggestions were a preface and framework for want I wanted for 00s games. The 90s games were not the point of the topic and intended as conjectural examples, however, the 00s games were to which I don't think he even mentioned a single one. Then preface things better? Don't complain when you're called out over it and then just ignore anybody who criticizes you... which I note despite being ignored for criticizing him. So let it be a note to everybody else. Sarcasthma posted... Ah, sorry I quoted him, then. You totally aren't. faramir77 posted... As for the 90s: Super Mario Bros 3 Sonic the Hedgehog Doom Pokemon Red/Blue Ocarina of Time Street Fighter 2 Yeah, SMB3 (released in NA in 1990) definitely is a bigger consideration than SMW. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:905485663] in What 6 gam...
